Ready for more of today’s TV dish? Well…

• Music mogul L.A. Reid has secured a spot on the judging panel for Simon Cowell’s X Factor, Per The Hollywood Reporter. Deadline, meanwhile, reports that Enrique Iglesias has been approached as a potential host.

• NBC has renewed late-late-night show Last Call with Carson Daly. Daly will be pulling double duty for the network in the coming months as host of Idol rival The Voice.

• Prison Break alum Robert Knepper has secured a supporting part in NBC’s drama pilot Reconstruction, reports Deadline. Off the Map‘s Martin Henderson has already been tapped to play the lead.

• And in case you missed it, V‘s Laura Vandervoort will star in an original holiday movie for ABC Family.

This shows sounds more and more like it would be a hoot to watch even though I have a hard time believing that Eliot and Chenoweth as a married couple given the difference in height. Did they first meet after he literally tripped over her? :-) All joking aside, can’t they change the name of the show? A lot of people are never going to even view this program because they’ll find the name offensive. The same kind of issue almost whacked Cougar Town when it premiered.

I have watched David from the very first Jag. It was a must just like Dallas, Magum PI, etc.. I loved the take off of NCIS in seasons 7 & 8. David is such a “FOX”. He is good in whatever he does. Also enjoyed him on the TALK on CBS. Looking forward to seeing more of him….

I enjoy any videos, movies or interview that David James Ek\lliot performs. He is an excellent actor. I qwn a lot of his movies anf the 10 year Jay series. He needs to be on tv more than ever since Jag left the air. Please bring him back with Nanci too. She is a god actress.
